The retunu from a Tew counties, indicate an unfavorable result for the Whigs. In the ten or twelve heard from, the Whigs have lost four members of the House of the Delegates. They have also lost the Senator from the W hoeing District, by a majority of 04. The vote in the State, thus far, has been a thin one, and that of itself is always an omen of ill-fortune. How strange it is, that with all their intelligence, correct feelings and patriotism, the Whigs still want an incentive to perform their duty at the ballot-boxes. We wish tho laws made it imperative for every man to vote, under penalty of having his taxes doubled. The country or the Treasury would be the gainer. Well, nevor mind J what if Virginia sulks and lies down in the furrow ? Unless some other State is ambitious enough to tulte the lead in the August elections, Ohio will set an example in October, in a difforent spirit The Buckeyes will show that Ihoy are made of sterner stuff. The fires of 1840 arc still burning in their hearts, neither to be smothered or subdued by treachery or opposition. Ohio will maintain the principles with which she triumphed in tho elevation of her beloved Harrison, whose ashes are mingled with her soil, and whose memory is dear to the supporters of the living Soldier and Statesman. Here the friends of the countty will take their stand, ai.d begin to turn back the tide of Whig defeats and Tory successes j and New York if we mistake not the signs of the times, will plunt her eagles in the same victorious field. We will together open the campaign of 1844 with demonstrations of power, vigor, energy and confidence in the final issue, that shall carry dismay and confusion into the ranks and secret Councils of false friends and open enemies. "WHAT WENT YE OUT FOR TO SEE?" A laughable story has got into circulation, at the expense of the Tyler party of this city. Some per sonwhether as a joko, or in seriousness, we are not apprised sent information to the squad here, that an Administration meeting was to be held at Dleudon on Saturday (last,) and that it would bo agreeable to have the countenanco of some of tho brethren of Columbus, on the auspicious occasion. The " talent ed editor " of tho Old School Republican, and one or two associates, rode out of town that morning with quite an air of ostentation, to bo present at a M ball rolling which promised to do the business for such mall fry as May, Korwin If Ko. But the Tyler party of Blendon turned out in no stronger force than tho Tyler procession of Greene county, so graphically described by the Xenia Torch-Light, and the deputation from the city stole back very quietly after dark of the some day, and reported that they had been into the country to attend a Ttmperance meeting! OUR MESS. The fourth chapter of this lively sketch engrosses a lurge part of our reading space to-day, but there is no news by the mails, if Jack Hinton was not on our hands. We have now cleared away the lumber which makes the beginning of a story rather dull and heavy, but which is indispensable to all books however interesting or romantic in the denouement. Jack is now fairly introduced, and henceforth we will venture to predict will grow rapidly in the estimation of our readers. A CASE FOR THE STATESMAN We are informed that the Commissioners of Highland county are issuing a species of currency, which circulates as money, in direct conflict with the provisions of a law passed at the last session. Thousands of dollars, we understand, in bills up to the denomination of Five dollars, have been put afloat since the adjournment, and now, indeed, form the principal part of the currency, in that section. The particular form used, we believe, is that of a promissory note to a Turnpike company, to tho capital stock of which tho county has subscribed. It is possible that the commissioners are not aware of the existence of tho provisions of law which they have violated, or of the scvoro penalties incurred by tho infraction. For their information, and that of the community interested in the natter, we copy the first section of the act which interdicts tho iseuo of the paper they have been induced to create, AN ACT. To punltb crimei therein nam), end prevention of a fraudu lent currency. Sec. 1. Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Unto, That H any permtn or perauiw shall issue and put in circulation, or procure to be issued and out in circulation, or assist in issuim? and putting in circulation, any evidence of indebtedness, cither printed, written, or struck, or mado or drawn in any other manner, designed and calculated, or lined to circulate as currency, the same 001117 print ed, written, engraved, stamped, or made or drawn in any manner whatever, by such person or persons so ismiing or putting in circulation such evidence of indebtedness, as aforesaid, or procured so to be printed, written, struck, or made or drawn in any manner whatever, by such person or persons so issuing or putting in circulation such evidence of indebtedness, as aforesaid, except persona or companies authorized so to do by sumo lnw of this Htate, or other Htate of the Union, or United States, every urh person or persons, so offending shall be deemed iftiilry of a mini) omen nor, and, 011 conviction thereof, by indictment, shall be imprisoned in the penitentiary, and kopt at hard labor, not more than throe, nor loss than one year. We hope there is tome mistake about this busi nesa. We cannot conceive, that men, respectable and prominent enough to be elected to the office of commissioner, could knowingly be guilty of an of fence, which would subject them to confinement in the Penitentiary. But the laws should bo enforced, let the consequences light where they may. Don't you say so, Mr. Statesman? PRICES CURRENT. BALTIMORE, April .Cattle.

UNION AND HARMONY OF THE PARTY I How the party were wont, in the hey-day of its pride, powor and profligacy, to boast of its unanimity and harmonious action 1 And indeed they had some reason to presume upon the exactness of their discipline and tho unquestioning submissiveness with which their cohorts could be made to support or abandon any measure of public policy. The rank and file had no opinions of their own, or if they pre tended to have any, dared not breathe them in oppo- -I sition to the . orders of their leaders. The consequence was that the aristocrats and magnates of the party could marshall the masses as they pleased and they were marched and countermarched, backwards and forwards, just as the whim or changing interests for the time being dictated. And this they used to trumpet through the land, as Uie "union and hanhony 0 the Party! But affairs wear a different aspect just at present. The Party is not quite as thoroughly united as we have known it to be in times past The cords which have bound it together have been drawn a little too tightly, and some of them have burst asunder. Our opponents begin to feel and know what it is to be divided and distracted. One banner and motto has ceased to rally an united host. Discordant interests and views have been colled in to play, and we at lost seethe great Loco Foco party separated into fragments, and engaged in tho delightful work of maligning oacli other's motives and stigmatising each other's conduct with the most approbrious, and we are fain to admit, appropriate epithets. Traitors, disorganizes, hard money faction ists, pretended democrats, bank bought federalists, and such like elegant and flowery phrases are showered upon each other m the greatest profusion, and with the most hearty good wit). The spectacle is not an unpleasant one, because it is obvious that these quondam friends and confederates, but now vindictive eneinies,tcll tho simple truth of each other, and it is proverbial that when rogues fall out, honest men get their dues. For ourselves we can assure the belligerents on both sides, that we have never seen a better matched fight, nor one in w hich we felt a slighter disposition to interpose fur the purpose of inclining the scale of either party. It is desirable that our friends of the Whig party should njt mistake the character of this broil. At the first blush they might be led to conclude, Unit Mr. I lamer and his associates designed to operate for our advantage, in putting forth certain propositions having an apparent likeness to their own acknowledged principles, and were therefore entitled to our sympathies and good wishes for their success. They cannot be too cautious in adopting an opinion of this character, fur the result might show them deceived by mere appearances, and disappointment and mortification would ensue. It will be better to await the progress of the feud with philosophical patience and deliberation. We may be permitted, however to enjoy the em barrassment and perplexity of the Statesman, and even to correct its attempts to impose a falso representation of the facts upon the public. The Statesman doubtless feels that Mr. 1 lamer has aimed a powerful if not fatal blow at its dictatorial sway over tho Party in the State. This would of courso oxcito Mcdary's resentment and fill his heart with schemes of revenge, although Mr. Harness policy should be obviously the best calculated to promote the ascendency of tho common interests to which both aro attached. Tho State Printer brooks no superior or controlling influence, lie will rule or ruin like the Turk, ho can bear no brother near the throne." Hence his undisguised hostility to Mr. Hainer's movement, although not at first prepared to meet it like one sure of his ground, and sure of the support of the majority with whom he had heretofore acted. When the West Union Resolutions made their first appearance, tho Statesman was for sometime silent. After laboring with them for a while, it finally gave tho proceedings an insertion, but pretended to regard them as very " indefinite," and " as meaning one thing about as well as another." A little further reflection has evidently produced the conviction that they mean one thing considerably more than another, tor without any additional demonstrations on the part of Messrs. Hamer, Price and McDowell, the Statesman has assumed an entirely different tone towards them. As an index to the course now re solved on by tho Columbus junto, we refer to the following paragraph, copied from yesterday's Statesman. "TUG WEST UNION MOVEMENT. Wo rejoice to learn by our letters from that region of country, that there is no possibility of dividing the democratic party on tho West Union resolutions. Knowing the democrats of that portion of the State, by a long and intimite intercourse, we could not for a moment believe that any one man could influence them to throw their power into the federal ranks. The federalists here Bay they had pledges from Mr. I lamer lost winter, while in Columbus, that he intended to exert his influence on his return home, to distract tho democratic party, and throw the power of the State into the hands of the Banks, If such is the fort, and from some developments in the Circle-ville Watchman, they look squally ; it is a very abortive and short sighted move. The fate of a' Hives and a Talhnadgo and others, should be a warning to all men of sense. Just at a time when bankers are being on their way to Texas or the Penitentiary, is a poor time to form leagues with them against the popular voice, every where expressing itself in tones of thunder against the Federal Whig 11a nk party." Now tli is is all gammon. It is Mcdary's whistling, to keep his own courage from evnpnrating. If he knows any thing of the public feeling in the South West, he knows that the majority of the Loco Fo-cos are taking sides with Mr. Hamer and his associates. Wo have tho most positive assurances from intelligent sources on tho ground, that the majority of tho Von Durcn party in tliat section of Uie State, will sustain the positions and doctrines act forth at West Union. Wo have seen a gentleman from one of Uie counties in Mr. Hamer's district, who is familiar with all parties, and who is confident that such will be the event A letter before tw has the fol lowing paragraph: "Mr. Hamer's Wert Union resolutions create much excitement here, but generally, Uie party go in for them. You will see Gen. McDowell's rasping of big John Brough in the last Hillsborough Gazette, Ho is as bitter as Brough was in tho Enquirer. A split is inevitable? Medary's assertion that Mr, Hamer gave 41 pledges" to any body hero last winter, that he would exert his influence to distract the democratic party," is an out and out fabrication. Mr. Homer's in communication with nono, that wo can understand, but his own friends. We have no expectation that the gentlemen who have put themselves forward ill this matter have turned Whigs, or that they are going to desert the principles upon which they have uniformly acted. In what do they agreo with us, more than Medary or Brough ? How do they propose to play into our hands inure than tho Auditor and State Printer ? Why Messrs. Homer, Prico and McDowell Buy they are in favor of a sound system of banking. - Are Uie men who op pose them so furiously, opposed to a sound system of banking 1 Will thov say they are? And which of these factions would help Uie Whigs to Uie posses sion of U10 State in the shortest period of timo ; those who opposed or those who favored such a system? It 11 all stuff. .We regard Hamer & Co., as the most dangerous enemies Uint we have to deal with. Friends of ours, or of the Whig party, Uiey pretend not tn be, nor do we claim them as such. 1 hoy have renounced no heresy for which we have held them as ad versa. rics, with Uie single exception that they are not Bank den true lives. They woro-not Bank destructive last year, when Uie Whigs of Brown, Clermont, Adams, eVc. mot them breast to breast in a hotly contested fight They rntolved Uien, a; their preliminary meetings, mat Uiey were tn favor of safe and judi clous banking. For aught that appears to the contrary, Uiey still go for Van Huron, fur the sub-Treas ury, against a Tariff for protection, against a Nation al Bank, and for and against every other question Uiat divides the country into two great parties. They simply differ with a portion of their friends upon a measure of local policy. They avow themselves op posed to an exclusive metallic currency, and in favor of , the establishment of tctU regulated Banks t or this nly have they been denounced in savage and bitter terms, by another portion of Uie leaders of their own party. The quarrel is purely of a family nature. Those who denounce Uie West Union gentlemen leave it to be inferred that they are in favor of an exclusive metallic currency and are opposed to well reg ulated banking. This is the light in which we regard the controversy. Which is the strongest party remains to be seen. We are of opinion Uiat the hon-eflt impulses of a majority of tho party would nat- rally lead them to sustain the West Union men, but Uie hard money faction have Uie advantage at present, in the adherence of Uie unscrupulous portion of Uie party press and Uie incendiary leaders in Uie Legislature. But Uie press in their part of Uie State does not chime in with the Statesman and Cincinnati Enquirer. We shall to-morrow make some extracts from Loco Foco journals which will show that the rupturo extends to the papers of the party as well as to Uie politicians, and if Uie Statesman is justified in denouncing the one as traitors and disorganize!, it must include the others in the bull of excommuni cation. ADDRESS OF TUB WHIt) MKM.tt.R9 OF THE ISKW VOlik LLUlSLATUKb. The Address of the Whig members of Uie Legis lature of New York, at Uio close of U10 winter ses sion, is an able and impressive production. Though addressed to Uie citizens of anoUicr State, it cannot but be reud with interest in any part of the Union. The extracts which wo copy, may be studied with profit by Uie Whigs of Ohio. The first relates to the policy of a Tariff. "The dominant Loco Foco party have not only manifested their destructive propensities in abandoning the great public works of the State, but likewise in doing all in theirl power to curtail Uie means of our people, hy destroying all the manufacturing establishments throughout our land. This thoy could etlect in no way so decisive as by an opposition to Uie Tarifl, And Uiat course was accordingly taken ; and that party are now arrayed in decided hostility to all measures of protection, and to every revision of the present Tariff of duties upon imports having that ob ject in view. 1 hat any ditlerenceof opinion should exist in tins country on the necessity ot a protective tariff is to us a matter of surprise. It is not alone for Uie benefit of the Northern and Middle States Unit bucIi a modification of Uie existing law, should take place, and that immediately ; but the true interests of Uie Southern and Southwestern States are even more immediately concerned in its adoption. t he settled policy ot brcat IJrilain is not to take any thing from Uie United States which they can raise in their own dominions, and to compel us as far as possible to reccivo our manufactured articles from Uiem. This is nota new system with that nation, but has been practised assiduously tor the law century. Its origin was just about a century ago, when Unit government in order to protect the iron manufacturer at homo. declared it a penal offence, subjecting Uie offender to fine of x&)0 and imprisonment, in the discretion ot Uie court, to erect any trip-hammer, slittiug-mill or forge for making iron in tho American Colonics. And by this end similar acts, they kept tho enterprise ot this country when in its colonial stale, sunservicnt to thai kingdom. Mhortly previous to the revolutionary war, as they could not raise indigo and rice in Great Britain, they used all their exertions to promote their growth in tho Colonies, now forming the United States. But when those Colonics separated from the inoUier country, Great Britain, through the East India Company, directed her attention to Asia, in order to cut off those articles from Uiw country. Of indigo the total imports into Great in 17tii,wus4i'5,101 lbs., of which l;il,Ili pounds came from the United States, and only 2",5;io pounds came from Asia. In 1788 the total imports ot that article amounted to 'X- 08ti,!KH pounds, of which l,(Ki0,li4 pounds were re ceived from this country, ami tf&.lit'l pounds from Asia. In May, 7ti, the directors of Uie East India Company first announced to the British Government the success of their attempt to make tho indigo of India surpass Uiat of America, and to exclude it lrom the English market; and now indigo has ceased to be raised 111 Uie United Mates. And what a great loss was sustained here in this single article of commerce by tho Southern States, by depending upon a foreign market for its consumption ! The same policy is now being pursued with reference to rice, winch will ere many years bo also excluded from Uie English market, by reason of the great supply which Unit country will obtain from Uicir hast India Colonies. 1 he same remark is also applicable to tho great southern staple cotton: and Uie day is close at hand, when the hug- lish manufacturer will prescribe his own low price to the souUiern planter, or refuse to tako his product That this event is near transpiring, is evident trom the well established fact that the cotton crop of Uie batt Indies in 1H41 is moro than the entire crop ot the United Stutes in 1617. nnd more than our total exports in any your prior to 1KW, being estimated at 800,000 bales, and showing an increase more rapid Uian at any time in the United Htatos since its introduction into that country. These facts should convince our souUiern friends Unit within Uie short period of five or six years they mnat prepare to grow cotton at four or six cents a pound, or turn their at tention to eomcllimir else. It Is in this course of policy on the part of Great Britain Uiat the Southern planters should look tor a decrease tn Uieir trade, and not to any imagined at tempt on the part of tuo North to destroy or affect it It Uiey aro wiso Uiey will anticipate Uio inevitable rosult of Uiat policy, and by voting for a TanlK amounting, if necessary to an exclusion of British manufactured goods lrom tho United states, build up a home market in our own country, which would more than consume all tho cotton and other products which Uiey can raise, and at better prices than Uiey can ever again hope to get abroad, and leave Eng land to tier sellisii system, and to look to her own Colonics for a market for her manufacture. This is the truo American System, one which all portions of our common country are equally interested in sustaining; for it would enable our working population to fmT employment, and our agriculturists a market for Uieir produce, and all within our own borders, not uibject to the fluctuations ul a foreign market, or tn the caprices of a foreign government; audit would do mure pmuamy than almost any ouier measure to settle and arrange the currency of our land. It has to recommend it to our most favorable consideration, tho fact it is no experiment ; but has been faiUifully tried with great success. It is Uie course now pursued by the Germanic States, and Uie result among Uiem for Uie last seven years has been glorious, as it win bo hero, it we havo only Uie sense to practice it. i hero has been built up new towns in Uie forests, and renovated cities fast going to decay afforded employment to Uiousands of their citixeus, and ena bled those to live in comfort who before scarcely knew where to get provisions from day to day sufficient for tho stay of life; and opened a homo market for all tho products ot Uie enrth raised by their tanners, and afforded an additional stimulus to that pursuit And this policy has been so successful in its results in Germany, where it has almost entirely excluded English manufactures from a very extensive district of country, previously supplied alone from Uiat source, that Prussia has within the last three years adopted uie same system. YY hy, then, with such exerience before us should we hesitate in adopting a svstein which will tend to nmko our country truly indepen dent, pro porous and Imppy. And yet si range as it may seem, with all Uus knowledge hoi ore us, we have a strong party, who are now in power in this Mate, opposed to me introduction ol such a course of policy in Ute United Status. 1 hey seem to forget Uiat tho wealth of a nation consists 111 its prnducu, and its strength in the num ber ot its industrious inhabitant. nnd Unit It is with nations, and it is with individuals, they never can bo prosperous unless they earn more than they expend, We trust however that notwiUistamling all tho opposition tins great measure may inert it will ulti mately prevail ; and we believe Uiat the public mind. nouth as well North, is last becoming enlightened nn this subject and in relation to its overpowering importance as compared with any other system ol policy attempted in this country, in mentioning Uio American system, we feel that associated with it in the minds of every citizen, is tho name ot IIknrt Ci.at, a name spoken with accents of gratitude of all who have truly the interests ol their country at heart To his great talents and exertions in this cause of the nation, we owe Uie attention which Uie subject ha excited Uirnughout the land. While wo cannot dismiiso the regret which wo feelnn the occa- sion of his retirement from hn anions duties in the Senate of the United States, we are srtisliod that he carries with him the thanks of t grateful people, and their wishes for his future happiness ; and Uiat a kind Providence may suaUin tnd prcjrvo him, to render such further services fur his country as it may have in store for him." We copy the following a being the best exposi- ! tion we have seen, of Uie effect of the recent decision of Uie Supreme Court, respecting fugitive slaves : "Among Uie measures of the present Legislature. Uie controversy between this State and Virginia has an important place. The judiciary committee of Uie Senate, after having under consideration that portion of the Governor's Message relating to the controversy between tlita State and Uie commonwealth of Vir ginia, trom Uie commencement ot this session, on Uie fast full day of the session brought in an act to re-pea) the law of 1840, granting tho right of trial bv jury to those who were claimed as fugitive slaves wiuun this tstate sinning lrom under Uie teet ot Uie oppressed that safeguard of human liberty which exists in the determination of a jury of his peers. And Uiis Uiey recommend on the strength of a decision of the Supreme Court of Uie United States, not involving Uie right of personal freedom, but based only upon tho question wheUier Uie owner of a person held to service, or his agent, upon retaking him as a fugitive slave and currying hun to Maryland, without Uie aid of any court of law, is guilty of kidnapping under tho statute of Pennsylvania. We cannot believe Uiat the Supreme Court of the Union would have held Uiat where Uio owner of a slave, claimed a property in Uie South, should resort to any of Uie courts of our State for the purpose of aiding him in recovering such slave, the Legislature ol tins commonwealth could not require Uiose courts to associate with Uiem a jury in determining thu questions involved in such claim and never will we believe such to be the fact until we see an express decision upon that point On Uie contrary, we regard Uie principles as luid down by Uie decision thus referred to by our opponents as their authority for Biich repeal, as all inning Uie prin ciples of such law. For we find that a majority of Uiat high tribunal hold Unit the several butes have concurrent power with Congress to enact laws in fur-Uierance of Uie constitutional provision in relation to such fugitive slaves and tiiis act of 1840 we assert was in furtherance of Uio Constitution of Uie United States, merely directing not Uie mode in which Uie courts of Uie United States shall proceed in matters within their jurisdiction, but how the courts of our own Stato, subject to our laws, shall exercise that power when called ujwn to do so a right which never can be questioned so long as any nghtsremuiutoUie several Stutes as independent Government The power to control our State Courts in their manner of administering our laws lias never been delegated to Ute United Suites, but remains among Uie powers reserved to Uio several States as independent sovereignties; and wo never should ai freemen assent to the assumption of any powers not expressly granted. And Uius have our upsmeiiU nut only used all Uieir exertions to deprive Uio oppressed within the boundaries of our commonwealth of Uio right of trial bv jury, but Uiey have also manifested a willingness and desire to subject Uio sovereignty ot this State to Uie will of Congress ; and that although Uie people of Uiis State have always manifested great anxiety to sustain and uphold our independent character as a nation. And alUiough the present majority claim to be actuated by a reverenco for Uie Constitution of the United Suites in thus urging a repeal of that law in favor of personal liberty, enacted 111 1810, yet for mere party conti derations Uiey but a few days previously used all their exertions to obtain tho passage of a law to violato an extensive and important contract made between tho Suite and an individual, and Uiat wiUiout offering to make him any, even tho least compensation for such loss, in opposition to on express declaration of the Constitution of Uio United States, that no State shall pass a law impairing Uie obligation of contracts ; and also of Uie Constitution of our own State, which holds that private property shall not bo taken for public purposes without just compensation. But all theno constitutional provisions all considerations of justice all Uio evil effects which such a course must have upon Uie morals of Uie community were lost sight of in tho apparent advantage which were to arise from Uie passage of such an iniquitous law,1 The next paragraph contains a truthful exposition of Uie disUnc lions which mark the labors and objects of Uie two parties in this country. "As a party we have always been distinguished from our opponents by Uie open and undisguised manner in which we have avowed and sustained our principles. We foster and encourage our system of public improvements, because it tends to devclope Uie resources of our country, to build up cities and town in Uie waste places; and because it adds to the wealth, comfort and happiness of our people We also sua-tain the tariff and credit system as being intimately connected, because they enable our citizens to compete wiUi the overgrown capitalists of Europe, and because Uiey induce our people to put forth Uieir energies for the sustenance of their families, the education of their children, and fur the good and glory of Uieir country. Wo also hold Uiat Uie good faith of our Slate should he kept inviolable, and Its purity jealously preserved even from suspicion; and that not only our protpenty out our existence a a nation is concerned in sedulously sustaining our honor and credit with Uio world. Let us compare with them, for one moment Uie principles of our opponent as shown by Uieir acUons. They atay Uio progress of our public works, and Uiat although the I cms by such course must be as great if not greater, than the cost of Uieir compleuon. And after having thus abandoned those means of woalth to the State, and crippled the energies of Uie people, Uiey impose upon them the additional burden of a direct tax. They impose the introduction of a tariff of duties upon fuieign import, and thus break down the manufacture of our our own country, and render us subservient to foreign nations for article of consumption, which could bo mado by our own industry; and especially so to Great Britain, Uie government of which country will not even permit our bread stuffs, whtrh are required Ui feed her half starved population, tn come in competition with her agriculturist. They would also crush our credit system and reduce us tn tho condi-Uon of Uie hard -money countries of Europe, and compel our laboring population to work for trom one to two shillings per day ; and Uio fanner to sell his wheat for two and three shillings a bushel ; and thus by Uie increased value of money make the rich in our land richer, and the poor, poor indeed and blight Uio industry r.f our people. The people of Uiis State will soon again have submitted to Uiem the choice between the two part ies. Lot them only recollect Uie condition of tho Slate, and their own condition under the Whig administration, and compare it with the evils they now labor under, and we cannot feir for Uio result Tho march of correct principles will steadily pro gress. It is true wo may occasionally meet with a reverse like that experienced at Uio last election, but ultimately principles like those held by (he Uemo- cratic Whig party, went mod as they are with Uio best interests of tho Commonwealth, and wiUi Uio prosperity and happiness of its citizens, must be successful. We cannot howevrr, reasonably hope for so desirable a result without exertion on our part Tho advantages and necessity of political organi zation, are forcibly inculcated in Uie brief paragraph which follows. Its recommendations ought to sink deeply into the heart of the Whigs of Ohio, Without organization, they must be overcome ; with it Uio Macedonian Phalanx was not moro invincible than Uiey can be. There i a Whig majority of fifteen or twenty Uiousand in Uio State. Organization brings it to Uie polls, and our opponents are over whelmed. "The effect of political organization are too ob vious 111 the course pursued by our opponents; and Uie advantage resulting to them, in forming t strict and close union among Uie members of Uicir part v. exciting a sympathy between Uiem from one end of the country to a1.0U.cr, and giving a concentrated unity 01 action on any important subject too great, to suffer Uio sauio to ewcapn our notice.

We promised our readers yesterday to lay before them some extracts from Loco Foco papers which should disprove the assertions of the Statesman, Uiat Uie people in Uie South-west were not disposed to sustain Mr. Hamer and his associates, and Uiat hero was no rupture in Uie ranks of Uie opposition. The following paragraph taken from an article in Uie Hillsborough Gazette, a paper of Uiat school, will bear us out In our remarks. It will be seen that the editor retorts upon Brough in a spirit of freedom and inde pendence quite new, we should think, to editors of Uiat party. THE WEST UNION RESOLUTIONS. Tho Cincinnati Enquirer an excellent Democrat ic Journal of the 20th instant, makes a harsh, and, as we conceive, unwarrantable attack on Uie author of Uie resolutions referred to, as well as those who composed the meeting at which they were adopted, and, upon Uie resolutions themselves. Without Uie least degree of charity or allowance for differences of opinion if differences exist; without a moment's time tor repentance it error has been committed tho gentleman who composed the West Union meeting are read out nay, kicked out of the Democratic party. That was hasty unbecoming illiberal, gentlemen of the Enquirer. It was in worse spirit I possible, Uiun uie resolutions, which, however hon est the intentions and we unhesitatingly accord honesty and purity of motive to Uie movers and actors in that meeting were too loose and indefinite in their character, and cluUicd in improper language. Tho whole affair was denounced by Uie Enquirer and looked upon with suspicion by othor Democratic papers, who, it now seems, are unwilling even to entertain any proposition for a reformation of Uie banking system, not originating wiUi Uiemselvcs, but who Uien, nevertheless, called fur the plan of the West Union meeting. ' Again: How often has Uie charge been mode by Uie Federal party that we were waging war upon Uie currency that wo are bank dcstructionists and not oanK relormers f and how uniformly nave uiese cuar-7nii been met with a denial bv the Statesman. Chilli- cothe Advertiser, Enquirer, and tho whole Democratic party r now frequently have bank projects neen introduced by the Democratic party in the Legislature Hartley's, Humphrey's, Faran's and others and received Uie plaudits of the journals alluded to, together with Uio approbation of the Domocracv of? the country ; and now, if the language of the Enquirer, which we have just quoted, is not in tho face ot Uiese denials, a virtual plea of guilty to tho charges pre ferred against us by the redoral party, then we misapprehend Uie meaning of that language." And further: " We believe a large portion of the democracy of Uhio expect the adoption ol some saio Panning system, and we Uiink it is now time, during the recess of Uie Legislature, to canvass, in a friendly spirit these questions again. Wo ore not particularly partial to "this plan,1 or that the Extra Session shall be the time, when an effort shull be made to establish a "plan;" but will Uie Enquirer suggest a better uiilanM or propose a more suitable time when Uiis important matter may ho attended to. w e inoK upon it as unkind and impolitic to denounce without ceremony, a number of respectable men who have uniformly acted with Uie democratic pnrty, because they now contend that certain principles which the whole party have fur years advocated but which seems recently to have been lost sight of by a few shall bo carried out Will the Enquirer now say what it is fur a safe banking system, or an exclusive metallic currency? We have never understood Uiat paper to be in favor of the latter, certainly ; but it is now time to speak out, and we rcppcctlully put Uie inquiry." The Democratic Standard," published ot George town, Uie residence of Mr. Hamer, has Uie following: "The first resolution will meet with Uie approval of the moss of Democrats. It u true, that U expresses the principles advocated by the Democracy of this mrtion of the Htate previous to the last election. At Uiat election nearly seventeen hunrtren democrats ot this Brown J county voted tor candidates picdgea to rote for an increase of the Banking cupiUd of the .Voe.' What say you to Uiat Mr. State Printer? Does Uiat look as though Mr. Humer has forfeited Uie re-Kpoct and confidence of his immediate neighbors and friends, merely because you and John Brough have assumed Uie privilege of expelling him from Uie party, and branding him as an old federalist ? Better try it over again! But Uie most scorching and scarifying effusion which has recently been given to Uie public, is Gen. McDowell's reply to John Brough strictures upon the West Union Manifesto. It is awful ! The "Fat Boy," probably weighs fifteen pounds less, under its infliction, Uian he did when he abandoned Uie peace ful duties of his office to mount the editorial tripod. In order U show Uio public how Uiese Hdcmocrats, a Uiey call themselves, love one another, we make the following liberal extracts from Gen. McD.'s retort Those of either party who know Brough, will acknowledge Uiat Uie General ha done him pretty good justice. Brough himself, may seo in, this u mir ror held up to nature," how popular he is. We begin to doubt w hether Uie gentleman has strengUi enough to succeed Ben. Tappan in the U. 8, Senate. We find Gen. McD.'s letter tn Uie Hillsborough Gazette. "Ma, Editor: Having been present at Adams county, when Mr Hamer's resolutions were ottered and adopted, and which have called forth since Uicir publication, criticisms trom two editors of nowspa- iwrs professing to be democratic, which are disingo- nuous and illiberal, I feel it a duty I owe myself and the party with which 1 havo acted tor twenty years and ever expect to act to repel particularly those which I find in the editorial columns of Uio Cincinnati Enquirer, of tho !0th iust, the paternity of which I seo, is ascribed to a certain John Brough. Auditor of Stat. I had not learned before, Uiat the demon spirit that raged in France during a portion of its revolutionary history, and deluged its soil with 1110 mood 01 Uiose who wore too independent to worship at Uie footstool of aelf-created dettpntK, had been oxhumated from it miserable grave, and imported into this Republic, to recuperate its palsied and fiendish energies and possess itself of so appropriate an adjunct as big John Brough, to re-enact Uio see new of an ago thai horn lied uven barbarism itself. 1 had not learned cither that it was treason fur a freeman in Ohio, to asttcrt his opinions in relation to State mlky, although those opinions might not chime wiUi Uiose of John Brough, or Uiat avowing Uiem publicly, would subject Uie individual to Uio hazard of being immolated tu appease the wrath of such upstart political deities as ho. Neither had 1 learned that there had been a public consecration of this redoubtable apostle, m the champion of democracy and Uio expositor of its principle, or Uiat he had been by that jMirty deputed to till the chair of political Topcry, to Uiunder from the Vatican anathemas against all who would not submit to the degrading process of having their principles, moral or political, measured by Ins standard of either. It may bo Unit he acts undertint authority of the 'faction which Uio resolutions condemn 1 but for ono 1 disclaim him and his authority Ui act as Uie expositor of tho principle of Uie democratic party. I have so far claimed to Utink ind act for myself, holding myself rexponsible to noaelf-cre-ated moral or political god-father, and whalevor m) opinions may be whether orthodox, or heterodox, or how over much or little Uiey may huve been influenced in their character by those of other pcrvuns, I leei unit 1 can say with proud exultation, uiat 1 am not indebted to Air. Brough or any of hi adjunct, for any part or portion of them. No, I hoe that 1 nor the Democratic party, with which I am proud to act shall nevor be under Uie necessity ol drawing Uon such a fountain to strengthen, invigorate or perntuato truo democracy virtito and truth never seek a Uieir defender and protectors. Mom uho art notoriously destitute of affinities for either. It however 1 should hemu'tHkpn,aiiu uie nine rnw arrived in the hiHtory of our Republic, when the mass of its freemen dare not utter or avow an opinion in relation to the policy and interests ot their country, wiUiout first consulting Uio tittle politind pnfs, w ho sit tijKin Uio editorial tripods ot our country, to know when thev may aeak, and what they khall speak, and are through fear of Uie wrath and dixploa- suro of such to lock their jaws, soil their lips, and hand the key to Uiew new gods ot democracy, wno claim to act by the authority of the majwty of the democratic party t it is time, yea bigh time, Uiat ev-ory man whose heart yet beats with the noble pulsa tions of liberty, should re-derlare his independence, shake from his limbs the degrading shackles, and hurl from their throne them? petty despot 1 lor my- lf I acknowledge no allegiance or fealty, and hoive that if I shall ever be so recreant to my rights and to Uie dignity of iny species as to cotueut tu be Uio vu sol of such contemptible tyrants, that my tongue may be forever palsied, and my right arm uioUonless in its socket I regret Uiat the course of such men makes it necessary for me to indulge in such remarks as can only adequately convey my ideas of them ; for Uieir moral or political portraitures, wheUier de lineated on paper or canvass, or reflected upon us bv Uieir living acts, are equally abhortnl to the moral sensibilities of all honest men." 4 "1 repeat Uiat Uie democratic oartvof this nortion of the State, ascribe the failure on the part of Uie uegisiaiure to create a good banking system, to the impracticable spirit of a few erratic politicians of our party, who are members, and who are. if we are to judge them by their acts, opposed to any practicable oyawui ui vanning in uie oiaie men wno are no much pleased with Uiemselves, that they can look upon the wave of ruin, Uiat is carrying on its mighty swell hundreds of their fellow-citizen every day to hopeless poverty, wiUi composure, and still claim to be protector ol Uieir interests, and Uie mouth-pieces of democracy. It is useless for Uiese gentlemen to indulge Uio hope of now destroying all banks of cir culation in Ohio, whilst she is surrounded with twen ty-live btates, a majority of which hove bonks, and are in favor of Uie banking system. A refusal on our part to have bank of circulation, would only produce a vacuum, to be filled by the paper of Ute oUier States, which our legislation could not prevent and over whose systems we could have no control. Be lieving that a banking system is demanded by Uie necessities of the country, and that Uie mass of Uie people of all parties expect it it is incumbent on those who exercise Uie high functions of lcgislaUon, to conform their action to Uio want and necessities of Uie country, raUier Uian to what they would have it to be. 1 he power to create a sound currency is now in the hands of the proper party, and it should be Uieir pride as it is Uioir duty to give such a system with such reform a would be pracUcable, and secure Uie greut interests of Uio people. If Uie time Bhull arrive in my period of existence, when all Uie Suites of this Union shall, by convention, agree to abolish banks of circuluuon, there will be no one who will hail it with more joy Uian myself; hut Uiat day is yet fur off, and not to be witnessed by the present generation of men. I entertained the hope ut ono time, that Uie constitutional treasury would have remained Uie law of Uie land, and Uiat its influences would have produced a salutary and decided change on Uio currency ot the whole country, by enlarging Uie specie basis, and regulating banks in their issues; but it has been but Uie creature of a day, and has fallen before a power whose pathway is marked with naught but broken promises and ruin and whose general policy seems to stand opposed to the true interests of the country. These aro in part my views in relation to Uie policy of our party, for which, it seems, I, among oUicrs, have been denounced by John Brough, as attacking his principles and Uie democratic party, am) in the defence of which he swaggers upon the political stage and proclaims himself Uio hero and defender of the party. Ho says Uiat 'from the duty he owes to his principles and the honest men who compose the democratic party, he cannot permit any, even Uio moat exalted, to assail those principles and that party under any guise.' John Brough principles, juat think of that 1 will agree that ho 1 a mun of at least seven principles, five for loaves and two for fishes, as was once remarked of one by Randolph ; but I confess I should have been better pleased with his heroism, if he had just squared his immense carcass around the bread und butter and said, gentlemen, 1 go tor John li rough and Uiese. It wus certainly rank for Uiis hero to have spoken of oUmr principles, and is doubtless so considered. One Uiing is curtain, that whilst ho ha the lonvc and fishes, we have but little to put on our didhes." 44 In conclusion, I will remark that the democratic party of Uiis portion of Uie State, Itnow what my views on banking nave been for years, and know me and those with whom I acted at West Union, too well to supposo fur a moment Uiat we are seeking any estrangement from our principles or our party, or courting any now alliance, and need not the kind interposition of such heartless mushroom politician a John Brough, who is yet scarcely a militia man in the ranks, to pronounce upon our creed call us desert ers, and attempt to tako from us in Uie presence of the old soldiers with whom we have fought for years Uie battles of democracy, our old musket that are consecrated by the scars inflicted upon them, when mingling in the strife of many a batUe, and bright with the glory of Uie victories they have helped us to win. This man, now Auditor of State, who feeds no longer with Uie mass, but has his rations secured and furnished from Uio public treasury, made up in part with our tarnines, and whose system is bloated with Uie luxuries it affords occupies no enviable posiuon, who, while his hands and pockets are filled from Uio labor of Uio people, is denouncing as deserters a portion of those upon whose shoulders he rode into office because they exercise the dearest right of every freeman, (the expression of his opinions) in relation to a system Uiat shall protect his rights and interest, and against such a one a promise noUiing but deeper ruin and misery. Your, &c j. j. Mcdowell. "April ittJcW Does not this show up the party in a most delectable condition? How harmonious! How deferential and conciliatory towards each other! But Uiis is only Uie beginning of trouble. The civil war in Rhode Island is nothing to what this Loco Foco bear fight promises tn be. The West Union resolutions. Brough stricture thereon, and Gen. McDowell's rejoinder, are but the opening scenes of a new political drama, in which Uio whole State cannot but feel interested, and of which Uie w hole Union will be the witness, Ai the young militia man said to hi maternal parent on his return from a general muster, when he had loaded fifteen cartridges into his firelock ono upon the oUior, and some wag had put a coal into tho barrel, by which Uio discharge commenced in inverse fashion, just a he had " grounded arm " behind the door, in Uie family mansion u Stand back, Mamma ! there art fourteen more to come yct.m A meeting has been colled in the Hillsborough Gazette, fur the 21 at of May, at Uiat placo, for the purpose we presume of re-affirming Uie sentiments, which the Enquirer and Statesman are reprobating o strongly. Wo anticipate warmer work, by and bye, as Uie campaign advance. If all who are in favor of sound banking are to be denounced as federalists, Uie federal party will muster strong. THE PRESIDENT TAKINU CARE OP "tlia" KKILMJS. The Fontem papers this morning bring various rumors to Uio effect Uiat Uie Collector at Philadelphia has been especially directed by the President to remove about thirty of Uio Clerks in Uie Custom House, and fill their place with persons designated at Washington. This is carrying out Uie Uireat made by the correspondent of the Old School Republican, that the President would have his revenge for the rejection of Tyson, by adopting the principle of "taking care of Ait friends." Tho unfortunate clerks w ho are the sufferers by this unheard of proscription, are not of course in favor of Mr. Tyler's ro-clecUon, What a magnanimous Virginian ! Mr. Tyson, it is atatt d, still retains his office, and will continue to do so until the Executive, in Uie exercise of his sovereign will and pleasure, shall be pleased to signify to him that he shall retire. This mode of proceeding will illustrate Mr. Tyler's idolatrous regard for Uie Constitution, which he practically tramples under foot, and likewise elucidate Uie cxpaiikive nature of hi conscience, which readily adapt itself to any outrage Uio most flagrant or any display of petty malice the most petty and contemptible.However, he had better have a "care" for himself Tho Loco Foe oa talk of impeaching him, and Uio "Corporal's Guard alone, would bo unable to prevent them. At any rate, the majority of Congress, have duty tn perforin to Uie country, which may in terfere with this novel doctrine, that Uio President, as Chief Magistrate of Uie Republic, is warranted in stimping from his high station Oh 1 how dishonored to " take care of his friend," NEW HOOKS.

We have not yet taken time to read this new production of Uulner's, nor if we had, could we aay any j Uiing in fexommcndition of Uui author whicb all th world did not know before.

It is designed for young people, and we have read it with feelings of satisfaction, as being very well adapted to the objects of the publisher. It is a fictitious tale, of course. "Armioirs Latin Prose Composition." Part II. This book contains a complete course of exer cises illustrative of all the important principles of Latin Syntax Our knowledge of the dead lan guages is limited to the slightest possible acquaintance with the "Quotation Dictionary," (!) and we cannot therefore Bpeak very confidently of such a work as this.

The retunu from a Tew counties, indicate an unfavorable result for the Whigs. In the ten or twelve heard from, the Whigs have lost four members of the House of the Delegates. They have also lost the Senator from the W hoeing District, by a majority of 04. The vote in the State, thus far, has been a thin one, and that of itself is always an omen of ill-fortune. How strange it is, that with all their intelligence, correct feelings and patriotism, the Whigs still want an incentive to perform their duty at the ballot-boxes. We wish tho laws made it imperative for every man to vote, under penalty of having his taxes doubled. The country or the Treasury would be the gainer. Well, nevor mind J what if Virginia sulks and lies down in the furrow ? Unless some other State is ambitious enough to tulte the lead in the August elections, Ohio will set an example in October, in a difforent spirit The Buckeyes will show that Ihoy are made of sterner stuff. The fires of 1840 arc still burning in their hearts, neither to be smothered or subdued by treachery or opposition. Ohio will maintain the principles with which she triumphed in tho elevation of her beloved Harrison, whose ashes are mingled with her soil, and whose memory is dear to the supporters of the living Soldier and Statesman. Here the friends of the countty will take their stand, ai.d begin to turn back the tide of Whig defeats and Tory successes j and New York if we mistake not the signs of the times, will plunt her eagles in the same victorious field. We will together open the campaign of 1844 with demonstrations of power, vigor, energy and confidence in the final issue, that shall carry dismay and confusion into the ranks and secret Councils of false friends and open enemies. "WHAT WENT YE OUT FOR TO SEE?" A laughable story has got into circulation, at the expense of the Tyler party of this city. Some per sonwhether as a joko, or in seriousness, we are not apprised sent information to the squad here, that an Administration meeting was to be held at Dleudon on Saturday (last,) and that it would bo agreeable to have the countenanco of some of tho brethren of Columbus, on the auspicious occasion. The " talent ed editor " of tho Old School Republican, and one or two associates, rode out of town that morning with quite an air of ostentation, to bo present at a M ball rolling which promised to do the business for such mall fry as May, Korwin If Ko. But the Tyler party of Blendon turned out in no stronger force than tho Tyler procession of Greene county, so graphically described by the Xenia Torch-Light, and the deputation from the city stole back very quietly after dark of the some day, and reported that they had been into the country to attend a Ttmperance meeting! OUR MESS. The fourth chapter of this lively sketch engrosses a lurge part of our reading space to-day, but there is no news by the mails, if Jack Hinton was not on our hands. We have now cleared away the lumber which makes the beginning of a story rather dull and heavy, but which is indispensable to all books however interesting or romantic in the denouement. Jack is now fairly introduced, and henceforth we will venture to predict will grow rapidly in the estimation of our readers. A CASE FOR THE STATESMAN We are informed that the Commissioners of Highland county are issuing a species of currency, which circulates as money, in direct conflict with the provisions of a law passed at the last session. Thousands of dollars, we understand, in bills up to the denomination of Five dollars, have been put afloat since the adjournment, and now, indeed, form the principal part of the currency, in that section. The particular form used, we believe, is that of a promissory note to a Turnpike company, to tho capital stock of which tho county has subscribed. It is possible that the commissioners are not aware of the existence of tho provisions of law which they have violated, or of the scvoro penalties incurred by tho infraction.

We hope there is tome mistake about this busi nesa. We cannot conceive, that men, respectable and prominent enough to be elected to the office of commissioner, could knowingly be guilty of an of fence, which would subject them to confinement in the Penitentiary. But the laws should bo enforced, let the consequences light where they may. Don't you say so, Mr. Statesman? PRICES CURRENT. BALTIMORE, April .Cattle.

UNION AND HARMONY OF THE PARTY I How the party were wont, in the hey-day of its pride, powor and profligacy, to boast of its unanimity and harmonious action 1 And indeed they had some reason to presume upon the exactness of their discipline and tho unquestioning submissiveness with which their cohorts could be made to support or abandon any measure of public policy. The rank and file had no opinions of their own, or if they pre tended to have any, dared not breathe them in oppo- -I sition to the . orders of their leaders. The consequence was that the aristocrats and magnates of the party could marshall the masses as they pleased and they were marched and countermarched, backwards and forwards, just as the whim or changing interests for the time being dictated. And this they used to trumpet through the land, as Uie "union and hanhony 0 the Party! But affairs wear a different aspect just at present. The Party is not quite as thoroughly united as we have known it to be in times past The cords which have bound it together have been drawn a little too tightly, and some of them have burst asunder. Our opponents begin to feel and know what it is to be divided and distracted. One banner and motto has ceased to rally an united host. Discordant interests and views have been colled in to play, and we at lost seethe great Loco Foco party separated into fragments, and engaged in tho delightful work of maligning oacli other's motives and stigmatising each other's conduct with the most approbrious, and we are fain to admit, appropriate epithets. Traitors, disorganizes, hard money faction ists, pretended democrats, bank bought federalists, and such like elegant and flowery phrases are showered upon each other m the greatest profusion, and with the most hearty good wit). The spectacle is not an unpleasant one, because it is obvious that these quondam friends and confederates, but now vindictive eneinies,tcll tho simple truth of each other, and it is proverbial that when rogues fall out, honest men get their dues. For ourselves we can assure the belligerents on both sides, that we have never seen a better matched fight, nor one in w hich we felt a slighter disposition to interpose fur the purpose of inclining the scale of either party. It is desirable that our friends of the Whig party should njt mistake the character of this broil. At the first blush they might be led to conclude, Unit Mr. I lamer and his associates designed to operate for our advantage, in putting forth certain propositions having an apparent likeness to their own acknowledged principles, and were therefore entitled to our sympathies and good wishes for their success. They cannot be too cautious in adopting an opinion of this character, fur the result might show them deceived by mere appearances, and disappointment and mortification would ensue. It will be better to await the progress of the feud with philosophical patience and deliberation. We may be permitted, however to enjoy the em barrassment and perplexity of the Statesman, and even to correct its attempts to impose a falso representation of the facts upon the public. The Statesman doubtless feels that Mr. 1 lamer has aimed a powerful if not fatal blow at its dictatorial sway over tho Party in the State. This would of courso oxcito Mcdary's resentment and fill his heart with schemes of revenge, although Mr. Harness policy should be obviously the best calculated to promote the ascendency of tho common interests to which both aro attached. Tho State Printer brooks no superior or controlling influence, lie will rule or ruin like the Turk, ho can bear no brother near the throne." Hence his undisguised hostility to Mr. Hainer's movement, although not at first prepared to meet it like one sure of his ground, and sure of the support of the majority with whom he had heretofore acted. When the West Union Resolutions made their first appearance, tho Statesman was for sometime silent. After laboring with them for a while, it finally gave tho proceedings an insertion, but pretended to regard them as very " indefinite," and " as meaning one thing about as well as another." A little further reflection has evidently produced the conviction that they mean one thing considerably more than another, tor without any additional demonstrations on the part of Messrs. Hamer, Price and McDowell, the Statesman has assumed an entirely different tone towards them. As an index to the course now re solved on by tho Columbus junto, we refer to the following paragraph, copied from yesterday's Statesman. "TUG WEST UNION MOVEMENT. Wo rejoice to learn by our letters from that region of country, that there is no possibility of dividing the democratic party on tho West Union resolutions. Knowing the democrats of that portion of the State, by a long and intimite intercourse, we could not for a moment believe that any one man could influence them to throw their power into the federal ranks. The federalists here Bay they had pledges from Mr. I lamer lost winter, while in Columbus, that he intended to exert his influence on his return home, to distract tho democratic party, and throw the power of the State into the hands of the Banks, If such is the fort, and from some developments in the Circle-ville Watchman, they look squally ; it is a very abortive and short sighted move. The fate of a' Hives and a Talhnadgo and others, should be a warning to all men of sense. Just at a time when bankers are being on their way to Texas or the Penitentiary, is a poor time to form leagues with them against the popular voice, every where expressing itself in tones of thunder against the Federal Whig 11a nk party." Now tli is is all gammon. It is Mcdary's whistling, to keep his own courage from evnpnrating. If he knows any thing of the public feeling in the South West, he knows that the majority of the Loco Fo-cos are taking sides with Mr. Hamer and his associates. Wo have tho most positive assurances from intelligent sources on tho ground, that the majority of tho Von Durcn party in tliat section of Uie State, will sustain the positions and doctrines act forth at West Union. Wo have seen a gentleman from one of Uie counties in Mr. Hamer's district, who is familiar with all parties, and who is confident that such will be the event A letter before tw has the fol lowing paragraph: "Mr. Hamer's Wert Union resolutions create much excitement here, but generally, Uie party go in for them. You will see Gen. McDowell's rasping of big John Brough in the last Hillsborough Gazette, Ho is as bitter as Brough was in tho Enquirer. A split is inevitable? Medary's assertion that Mr, Hamer gave 41 pledges" to any body hero last winter, that he would exert his influence to distract the democratic party," is an out and out fabrication. Mr. Homer's in communication with nono, that wo can understand, but his own friends. We have no expectation that the gentlemen who have put themselves forward ill this matter have turned Whigs, or that they are going to desert the principles upon which they have uniformly acted. In what do they agreo with us, more than Medary or Brough ? How do they propose to play into our hands inure than tho Auditor and State Printer ? Why Messrs. Homer, Prico and McDowell Buy they are in favor of a sound system of banking. - Are Uie men who op pose them so furiously, opposed to a sound system of banking 1 Will thov say they are? And which of these factions would help Uie Whigs to Uie posses sion of U10 State in the shortest period of timo ; those who opposed or those who favored such a system? It 11 all stuff. .We regard Hamer & Co., as the most dangerous enemies Uint we have to deal with. Friends of ours, or of the Whig party, Uiey pretend not tn be, nor do we claim them as such. 1 hoy have renounced no heresy for which we have held them as ad versa. rics, with Uie single exception that they are not Bank den true lives. They woro-not Bank destructive last year, when Uie Whigs of Brown, Clermont, Adams, eVc. mot them breast to breast in a hotly contested fight They rntolved Uien, a; their preliminary meetings, mat Uiey were tn favor of safe and judi clous banking. For aught that appears to the contrary, Uiey still go for Van Huron, fur the sub-Treas ury, against a Tariff for protection, against a Nation al Bank, and for and against every other question Uiat divides the country into two great parties. They simply differ with a portion of their friends upon a measure of local policy. They avow themselves op posed to an exclusive metallic currency, and in favor of , the establishment of tctU regulated Banks t or this nly have they been denounced in savage and bitter terms, by another portion of Uie leaders of their own party. The quarrel is purely of a family nature. Those who denounce Uie West Union gentlemen leave it to be inferred that they are in favor of an exclusive metallic currency and are opposed to well reg ulated banking. This is the light in which we regard the controversy. Which is the strongest party remains to be seen. We are of opinion Uiat the hon-eflt impulses of a majority of tho party would nat- rally lead them to sustain the West Union men, but Uie hard money faction have Uie advantage at present, in the adherence of Uie unscrupulous portion of Uie party press and Uie incendiary leaders in Uie Legislature. But Uie press in their part of Uie State does not chime in with the Statesman and Cincinnati Enquirer. We shall to-morrow make some extracts from Loco Foco journals which will show that the rupturo extends to the papers of the party as well as to Uie politicians, and if Uie Statesman is justified in denouncing the one as traitors and disorganize!, it must include the others in the bull of excommuni cation. ADDRESS OF TUB WHIt) MKM.tt.R9 OF THE ISKW VOlik LLUlSLATUKb. The Address of the Whig members of Uie Legis lature of New York, at Uio close of U10 winter ses sion, is an able and impressive production. Though addressed to Uie citizens of anoUicr State, it cannot but be reud with interest in any part of the Union. The extracts which wo copy, may be studied with profit by Uie Whigs of Ohio. The first relates to the policy of a Tariff. "The dominant Loco Foco party have not only manifested their destructive propensities in abandoning the great public works of the State, but likewise in doing all in theirl power to curtail Uie means of our people, hy destroying all the manufacturing establishments throughout our land. This thoy could etlect in no way so decisive as by an opposition to Uie Tarifl, And Uiat course was accordingly taken ; and that party are now arrayed in decided hostility to all measures of protection, and to every revision of the present Tariff of duties upon imports having that ob ject in view. 1 hat any ditlerenceof opinion should exist in tins country on the necessity ot a protective tariff is to us a matter of surprise. It is not alone for Uie benefit of the Northern and Middle States Unit bucIi a modification of Uie existing law, should take place, and that immediately ; but the true interests of Uie Southern and Southwestern States are even more immediately concerned in its adoption. t he settled policy ot brcat IJrilain is not to take any thing from Uie United States which they can raise in their own dominions, and to compel us as far as possible to reccivo our manufactured articles from Uiem. This is nota new system with that nation, but has been practised assiduously tor the law century. Its origin was just about a century ago, when Unit government in order to protect the iron manufacturer at homo. declared it a penal offence, subjecting Uie offender to fine of x&)0 and imprisonment, in the discretion ot Uie court, to erect any trip-hammer, slittiug-mill or forge for making iron in tho American Colonics. And by this end similar acts, they kept tho enterprise ot this country when in its colonial stale, sunservicnt to thai kingdom. Mhortly previous to the revolutionary war, as they could not raise indigo and rice in Great Britain, they used all their exertions to promote their growth in tho Colonies, now forming the United States. But when those Colonics separated from the inoUier country, Great Britain, through the East India Company, directed her attention to Asia, in order to cut off those articles from Uiw country. Of indigo the total imports into Great in 17tii,wus4i'5,101 lbs., of which l;il,Ili pounds came from the United States, and only 2",5;io pounds came from Asia. In 1788 the total imports ot that article amounted to 'X- 08ti,!KH pounds, of which l,(Ki0,li4 pounds were re ceived from this country, ami tf&.lit'l pounds from Asia. In May, 7ti, the directors of Uie East India Company first announced to the British Government the success of their attempt to make tho indigo of India surpass Uiat of America, and to exclude it lrom the English market; and now indigo has ceased to be raised 111 Uie United Mates. And what a great loss was sustained here in this single article of commerce by tho Southern States, by depending upon a foreign market for its consumption ! The same policy is now being pursued with reference to rice, winch will ere many years bo also excluded from Uie English market, by reason of the great supply which Unit country will obtain from Uicir hast India Colonies. 1 he same remark is also applicable to tho great southern staple cotton: and Uie day is close at hand, when the hug- lish manufacturer will prescribe his own low price to the souUiern planter, or refuse to tako his product That this event is near transpiring, is evident trom the well established fact that the cotton crop of Uie batt Indies in 1H41 is moro than the entire crop ot the United Stutes in 1617. nnd more than our total exports in any your prior to 1KW, being estimated at 800,000 bales, and showing an increase more rapid Uian at any time in the United Htatos since its introduction into that country. These facts should convince our souUiern friends Unit within Uie short period of five or six years they mnat prepare to grow cotton at four or six cents a pound, or turn their at tention to eomcllimir else. It Is in this course of policy on the part of Great Britain Uiat the Southern planters should look tor a decrease tn Uieir trade, and not to any imagined at tempt on the part of tuo North to destroy or affect it It Uiey aro wiso Uiey will anticipate Uio inevitable rosult of Uiat policy, and by voting for a TanlK amounting, if necessary to an exclusion of British manufactured goods lrom tho United states, build up a home market in our own country, which would more than consume all tho cotton and other products which Uiey can raise, and at better prices than Uiey can ever again hope to get abroad, and leave Eng land to tier sellisii system, and to look to her own Colonics for a market for her manufacture. This is the truo American System, one which all portions of our common country are equally interested in sustaining; for it would enable our working population to fmT employment, and our agriculturists a market for Uieir produce, and all within our own borders, not uibject to the fluctuations ul a foreign market, or tn the caprices of a foreign government; audit would do mure pmuamy than almost any ouier measure to settle and arrange the currency of our land. It has to recommend it to our most favorable consideration, tho fact it is no experiment ; but has been faiUifully tried with great success. It is Uie course now pursued by the Germanic States, and Uie result among Uiem for Uie last seven years has been glorious, as it win bo hero, it we havo only Uie sense to practice it. i hero has been built up new towns in Uie forests, and renovated cities fast going to decay afforded employment to Uiousands of their citixeus, and ena bled those to live in comfort who before scarcely knew where to get provisions from day to day sufficient for tho stay of life; and opened a homo market for all tho products ot Uie enrth raised by their tanners, and afforded an additional stimulus to that pursuit And this policy has been so successful in its results in Germany, where it has almost entirely excluded English manufactures from a very extensive district of country, previously supplied alone from Uiat source, that Prussia has within the last three years adopted uie same system. YY hy, then, with such exerience before us should we hesitate in adopting a svstein which will tend to nmko our country truly indepen dent, pro porous and Imppy. And yet si range as it may seem, with all Uus knowledge hoi ore us, we have a strong party, who are now in power in this Mate, opposed to me introduction ol such a course of policy in Ute United Status. 1 hey seem to forget Uiat tho wealth of a nation consists 111 its prnducu, and its strength in the num ber ot its industrious inhabitant. nnd Unit It is with nations, and it is with individuals, they never can bo prosperous unless they earn more than they expend, We trust however that notwiUistamling all tho opposition tins great measure may inert it will ulti mately prevail ; and we believe Uiat the public mind. nouth as well North, is last becoming enlightened nn this subject and in relation to its overpowering importance as compared with any other system ol policy attempted in this country, in mentioning Uio American system, we feel that associated with it in the minds of every citizen, is tho name ot IIknrt Ci.at, a name spoken with accents of gratitude of all who have truly the interests ol their country at heart To his great talents and exertions in this cause of the nation, we owe Uie attention which Uie subject ha excited Uirnughout the land. While wo cannot dismiiso the regret which wo feelnn the occa- sion of his retirement from hn anions duties in the Senate of the United States, we are srtisliod that he carries with him the thanks of t grateful people, and their wishes for his future happiness ; and Uiat a kind Providence may suaUin tnd prcjrvo him, to render such further services fur his country as it may have in store for him." We copy the following a being the best exposi- ! tion we have seen, of Uie effect of the recent decision of Uie Supreme Court, respecting fugitive slaves : "Among Uie measures of the present Legislature. Uie controversy between this State and Virginia has an important place. The judiciary committee of Uie Senate, after having under consideration that portion of the Governor's Message relating to the controversy between tlita State and Uie commonwealth of Vir ginia, trom Uie commencement ot this session, on Uie fast full day of the session brought in an act to re-pea) the law of 1840, granting tho right of trial bv jury to those who were claimed as fugitive slaves wiuun this tstate sinning lrom under Uie teet ot Uie oppressed that safeguard of human liberty which exists in the determination of a jury of his peers. And Uiis Uiey recommend on the strength of a decision of the Supreme Court of Uie United States, not involving Uie right of personal freedom, but based only upon tho question wheUier Uie owner of a person held to service, or his agent, upon retaking him as a fugitive slave and currying hun to Maryland, without Uie aid of any court of law, is guilty of kidnapping under tho statute of Pennsylvania. We cannot believe Uiat the Supreme Court of the Union would have held Uiat where Uio owner of a slave, claimed a property in Uie South, should resort to any of Uie courts of our State for the purpose of aiding him in recovering such slave, the Legislature ol tins commonwealth could not require Uiose courts to associate with Uiem a jury in determining thu questions involved in such claim and never will we believe such to be the fact until we see an express decision upon that point On Uie contrary, we regard Uie principles as luid down by Uie decision thus referred to by our opponents as their authority for Biich repeal, as all inning Uie prin ciples of such law. For we find that a majority of Uiat high tribunal hold Unit the several butes have concurrent power with Congress to enact laws in fur-Uierance of Uie constitutional provision in relation to such fugitive slaves and tiiis act of 1840 we assert was in furtherance of Uio Constitution of Uie United States, merely directing not Uie mode in which Uie courts of Uie United States shall proceed in matters within their jurisdiction, but how the courts of our own Stato, subject to our laws, shall exercise that power when called ujwn to do so a right which never can be questioned so long as any nghtsremuiutoUie several Stutes as independent Government The power to control our State Courts in their manner of administering our laws lias never been delegated to Ute United Suites, but remains among Uie powers reserved to Uio several States as independent sovereignties; and wo never should ai freemen assent to the assumption of any powers not expressly granted. And Uius have our upsmeiiU nut only used all Uieir exertions to deprive Uio oppressed within the boundaries of our commonwealth of Uio right of trial bv jury, but Uiey have also manifested a willingness and desire to subject Uio sovereignty ot this State to Uie will of Congress ; and that although Uie people of Uiis State have always manifested great anxiety to sustain and uphold our independent character as a nation. And alUiough the present majority claim to be actuated by a reverenco for Uie Constitution of the United Suites in thus urging a repeal of that law in favor of personal liberty, enacted 111 1810, yet for mere party conti derations Uiey but a few days previously used all their exertions to obtain tho passage of a law to violato an extensive and important contract made between tho Suite and an individual, and Uiat wiUiout offering to make him any, even tho least compensation for such loss, in opposition to on express declaration of the Constitution of Uio United States, that no State shall pass a law impairing Uie obligation of contracts ; and also of Uie Constitution of our own State, which holds that private property shall not bo taken for public purposes without just compensation. But all theno constitutional provisions all considerations of justice all Uio evil effects which such a course must have upon Uie morals of Uie community were lost sight of in tho apparent advantage which were to arise from Uie passage of such an iniquitous law,1 The next paragraph contains a truthful exposition of Uie disUnc lions which mark the labors and objects of Uie two parties in this country. "As a party we have always been distinguished from our opponents by Uie open and undisguised manner in which we have avowed and sustained our principles. We foster and encourage our system of public improvements, because it tends to devclope Uie resources of our country, to build up cities and town in Uie waste places; and because it adds to the wealth, comfort and happiness of our people We also sua-tain the tariff and credit system as being intimately connected, because they enable our citizens to compete wiUi the overgrown capitalists of Europe, and because Uiey induce our people to put forth Uieir energies for the sustenance of their families, the education of their children, and fur the good and glory of Uieir country. Wo also hold Uiat Uie good faith of our Slate should he kept inviolable, and Its purity jealously preserved even from suspicion; and that not only our protpenty out our existence a a nation is concerned in sedulously sustaining our honor and credit with Uio world. Let us compare with them, for one moment Uie principles of our opponent as shown by Uieir acUons. They atay Uio progress of our public works, and Uiat although the I cms by such course must be as great if not greater, than the cost of Uieir compleuon. And after having thus abandoned those means of woalth to the State, and crippled the energies of Uie people, Uiey impose upon them the additional burden of a direct tax. They impose the introduction of a tariff of duties upon fuieign import, and thus break down the manufacture of our our own country, and render us subservient to foreign nations for article of consumption, which could bo mado by our own industry; and especially so to Great Britain, Uie government of which country will not even permit our bread stuffs, whtrh are required Ui feed her half starved population, tn come in competition with her agriculturist. They would also crush our credit system and reduce us tn tho condi-Uon of Uie hard -money countries of Europe, and compel our laboring population to work for trom one to two shillings per day ; and Uio fanner to sell his wheat for two and three shillings a bushel ; and thus by Uie increased value of money make the rich in our land richer, and the poor, poor indeed and blight Uio industry r.f our people. The people of Uiis State will soon again have submitted to Uiem the choice between the two part ies. Lot them only recollect Uie condition of tho Slate, and their own condition under the Whig administration, and compare it with the evils they now labor under, and we cannot feir for Uio result Tho march of correct principles will steadily pro gress. It is true wo may occasionally meet with a reverse like that experienced at Uio last election, but ultimately principles like those held by (he Uemo- cratic Whig party, went mod as they are with Uio best interests of tho Commonwealth, and wiUi Uio prosperity and happiness of its citizens, must be successful. We cannot howevrr, reasonably hope for so desirable a result without exertion on our part Tho advantages and necessity of political organi zation, are forcibly inculcated in Uie brief paragraph which follows. Its recommendations ought to sink deeply into the heart of the Whigs of Ohio, Without organization, they must be overcome ; with it Uio Macedonian Phalanx was not moro invincible than Uiey can be. There i a Whig majority of fifteen or twenty Uiousand in Uio State. Organization brings it to Uie polls, and our opponents are over whelmed. "The effect of political organization are too ob vious 111 the course pursued by our opponents; and Uie advantage resulting to them, in forming t strict and close union among Uie members of Uicir part v. exciting a sympathy between Uiem from one end of the country to a1.0U.cr, and giving a concentrated unity 01 action on any important subject too great, to suffer Uio sauio to ewcapn our notice. We cannot with Uio much earnestness and zeal enforro upon thorio who think with us on tho groat questions agitating Uiis people, tho importance and necessity of organization, full and perfect organization. With Uiat wo must always triumph. There ha not been a prrixl tor the last six )ear in Uus State when tho higs were not in a decided majority, if Uiey could have made their strength available by concentrated action. But we have suffered ourselves lo be huatrn from the field in detail by an inferior force. Such a stato of things should bo permitted no longer in our runic; an her nesi mien-sis are in danger and may suffer irretrievably unless wrested from Uio hands uf those whose motto is Destructioh."

We promised our readers yesterday to lay before them some extracts from Loco Foco papers which should disprove the assertions of the Statesman, Uiat Uie people in Uie South-west were not disposed to sustain Mr. Hamer and his associates, and Uiat hero was no rupture in Uie ranks of Uie opposition. The following paragraph taken from an article in Uie Hillsborough Gazette, a paper of Uiat school, will bear us out In our remarks. It will be seen that the editor retorts upon Brough in a spirit of freedom and inde pendence quite new, we should think, to editors of Uiat party. THE WEST UNION RESOLUTIONS. Tho Cincinnati Enquirer an excellent Democrat ic Journal of the 20th instant, makes a harsh, and, as we conceive, unwarrantable attack on Uie author of Uie resolutions referred to, as well as those who composed the meeting at which they were adopted, and, upon Uie resolutions themselves. Without Uie least degree of charity or allowance for differences of opinion if differences exist; without a moment's time tor repentance it error has been committed tho gentleman who composed the West Union meeting are read out nay, kicked out of the Democratic party. That was hasty unbecoming illiberal, gentlemen of the Enquirer. It was in worse spirit I possible, Uiun uie resolutions, which, however hon est the intentions and we unhesitatingly accord honesty and purity of motive to Uie movers and actors in that meeting were too loose and indefinite in their character, and cluUicd in improper language. Tho whole affair was denounced by Uie Enquirer and looked upon with suspicion by othor Democratic papers, who, it now seems, are unwilling even to entertain any proposition for a reformation of Uie banking system, not originating wiUi Uiemselvcs, but who Uien, nevertheless, called fur the plan of the West Union meeting. ' Again: How often has Uie charge been mode by Uie Federal party that we were waging war upon Uie currency that wo are bank dcstructionists and not oanK relormers f and how uniformly nave uiese cuar-7nii been met with a denial bv the Statesman. Chilli- cothe Advertiser, Enquirer, and tho whole Democratic party r now frequently have bank projects neen introduced by the Democratic party in the Legislature Hartley's, Humphrey's, Faran's and others and received Uie plaudits of the journals alluded to, together with Uio approbation of the Domocracv of? the country ; and now, if the language of the Enquirer, which we have just quoted, is not in tho face ot Uiese denials, a virtual plea of guilty to tho charges pre ferred against us by the redoral party, then we misapprehend Uie meaning of that language." And further: " We believe a large portion of the democracy of Uhio expect the adoption ol some saio Panning system, and we Uiink it is now time, during the recess of Uie Legislature, to canvass, in a friendly spirit these questions again.

We have never understood Uiat paper to be in favor of the latter, certainly ; but it is now time to speak out, and we rcppcctlully put Uie inquiry." The Democratic Standard," published ot George town, Uie residence of Mr. Hamer, has Uie following: "The first resolution will meet with Uie approval of the moss of Democrats. It u true, that U expresses the principles advocated by the Democracy of this mrtion of the Htate previous to the last election. At Uiat election nearly seventeen hunrtren democrats ot this Brown J county voted tor candidates picdgea to rote for an increase of the Banking cupiUd of the .Voe.' What say you to Uiat Mr. State Printer? Does Uiat look as though Mr. Humer has forfeited Uie re-Kpoct and confidence of his immediate neighbors and friends, merely because you and John Brough have assumed Uie privilege of expelling him from Uie party, and branding him as an old federalist ? Better try it over again! But Uie most scorching and scarifying effusion which has recently been given to Uie public, is Gen. McDowell's reply to John Brough strictures upon the West Union Manifesto. It is awful ! The "Fat Boy," probably weighs fifteen pounds less, under its infliction, Uian he did when he abandoned Uie peace ful duties of his office to mount the editorial tripod. In order U show Uio public how Uiese Hdcmocrats, a Uiey call themselves, love one another, we make the following liberal extracts from Gen.

"Ma, Editor: Having been present at Adams county, when Mr Hamer's resolutions were ottered and adopted, and which have called forth since Uicir publication, criticisms trom two editors of nowspa- iwrs professing to be democratic, which are disingo- nuous and illiberal, I feel it a duty I owe myself and the party with which 1 havo acted tor twenty years and ever expect to act to repel particularly those which I find in the editorial columns of Uio Cincinnati Enquirer, of tho !0th iust, the paternity of which I seo, is ascribed to a certain John Brough.

Neither had 1 learned that there had been a public consecration of this redoubtable apostle, m the champion of democracy and Uio expositor of its principle, or Uiat he had been by that jMirty deputed to till the chair of political Topcry, to Uiunder from the Vatican anathemas against all who would not submit to the degrading process of having their principles, moral or political, measured by Ins standard of either. It may bo Unit he acts undertint authority of the 'faction which Uio resolutions condemn 1 but for ono 1 disclaim him and his authority Ui act as Uie expositor of tho principle of Uie democratic party. I have so far claimed to Utink ind act for myself, holding myself rexponsible to noaelf-cre-ated moral or political god-father, and whalevor m) opinions may be whether orthodox, or heterodox, or how over much or little Uiey may huve been influenced in their character by those of other pcrvuns, I leei unit 1 can say with proud exultation, uiat 1 am not indebted to Air.

It is useless for Uiese gentlemen to indulge Uio hope of now destroying all banks of cir culation in Ohio, whilst she is surrounded with twen ty-live btates, a majority of which hove bonks, and are in favor of Uie banking system. A refusal on our part to have bank of circulation, would only produce a vacuum, to be filled by the paper of Ute oUier States, which our legislation could not prevent and over whose systems we could have no control. Be lieving that a banking system is demanded by Uie necessities of the country, and that Uie mass of Uie people of all parties expect it it is incumbent on those who exercise Uie high functions of lcgislaUon, to conform their action to Uio want and necessities of Uie country, raUier Uian to what they would have it to be. 1 he power to create a sound currency is now in the hands of the proper party, and it should be Uieir pride as it is Uioir duty to give such a system with such reform a would be pracUcable, and secure Uie greut interests of Uio people. If Uie time Bhull arrive in my period of existence, when all Uie Suites of this Union shall, by convention, agree to abolish banks of circuluuon, there will be no one who will hail it with more joy Uian myself; hut Uiat day is yet fur off, and not to be witnessed by the present generation of men. I entertained the hope ut ono time, that Uie constitutional treasury would have remained Uie law of Uie land, and Uiat its influences would have produced a salutary and decided change on Uio currency ot the whole country, by enlarging Uie specie basis, and regulating banks in their issues; but it has been but Uie creature of a day, and has fallen before a power whose pathway is marked with naught but broken promises and ruin and whose general policy seems to stand opposed to the true interests of the country. These aro in part my views in relation to Uie policy of our party, for which, it seems, I, among oUicrs, have been denounced by John Brough, as attacking his principles and Uie democratic party, am) in the defence of which he swaggers upon the political stage and proclaims himself Uio hero and defender of the party. Ho says Uiat 'from the duty he owes to his principles and the honest men who compose the democratic party, he cannot permit any, even Uio moat exalted, to assail those principles and that party under any guise.' John Brough principles, juat think of that 1 will agree that ho 1 a mun of at least seven principles, five for loaves and two for fishes, as was once remarked of one by Randolph ; but I confess I should have been better pleased with his heroism, if he had just squared his immense carcass around the bread und butter and said, gentlemen, 1 go tor John li rough and Uiese. It wus certainly rank for Uiis hero to have spoken of oUmr principles, and is doubtless so considered. One Uiing is curtain, that whilst ho ha the lonvc and fishes, we have but little to put on our didhes." 44 In conclusion, I will remark that the democratic party of Uiis portion of Uie State, Itnow what my views on banking nave been for years, and know me and those with whom I acted at West Union, too well to supposo fur a moment Uiat we are seeking any estrangement from our principles or our party, or courting any now alliance, and need not the kind interposition of such heartless mushroom politician a John Brough, who is yet scarcely a militia man in the ranks, to pronounce upon our creed call us desert ers, and attempt to tako from us in Uie presence of the old soldiers with whom we have fought for years Uie battles of democracy, our old musket that are consecrated by the scars inflicted upon them, when mingling in the strife of many a batUe, and bright with the glory of Uie victories they have helped us to win. This man, now Auditor of State, who feeds no longer with Uie mass, but has his rations secured and furnished from Uio public treasury, made up in part with our tarnines, and whose system is bloated with Uie luxuries it affords occupies no enviable posiuon, who, while his hands and pockets are filled from Uio labor of Uio people, is denouncing as deserters a portion of those upon whose shoulders he rode into office because they exercise the dearest right of every freeman, (the expression of his opinions) in relation to a system Uiat shall protect his rights and interest, and against such a one a promise noUiing but deeper ruin and misery.

THE PRESIDENT TAKINU CARE OP "tlia" KKILMJS. The Fontem papers this morning bring various rumors to Uio effect Uiat Uie Collector at Philadelphia has been especially directed by the President to remove about thirty of Uio Clerks in Uie Custom House, and fill their place with persons designated at Washington. This is carrying out Uie Uireat made by the correspondent of the Old School Republican, that the President would have his revenge for the rejection of Tyson, by adopting the principle of "taking care of Ait friends." Tho unfortunate clerks w ho are the sufferers by this unheard of proscription, are not of course in favor of Mr. Tyler's ro-clecUon, What a magnanimous Virginian ! Mr. Tyson, it is atatt d, still retains his office, and will continue to do so until the Executive, in Uie exercise of his sovereign will and pleasure, shall be pleased to signify to him that he shall retire. This mode of proceeding will illustrate Mr. Tyler's idolatrous regard for Uie Constitution, which he practically tramples under foot, and likewise elucidate Uie cxpaiikive nature of hi conscience, which readily adapt itself to any outrage Uio most flagrant or any display of petty malice the most petty and contemptible.However, he had better have a "care" for himself Tho Loco Foe oa talk of impeaching him, and Uio "Corporal's Guard alone, would bo unable to prevent them.
